Harry Potter Studio Tour, London

Today was the day we went up to London for the Tour of the Harry Potter Studio. It was amazing! To see everything so up close and personal, to touch the things the actors have touched, to see the exact clothes they wore... Honestly jaw-dropping! So now I guess I really have to write about everything I saw, which would be completely draining as I am so tired already... I have to though. This is also something to do while the pictures load on Facebook!

To begin with, the tour starts in the queue! This is where you see the first thing from the movies. The cupboard under the stairs. On the shelf inside are the figures Harry played with, and the first ever pair of spectacles he wore in the movies. They are tiny! Then you are moved into this little room to see how Harry Potter shaped the world, boooring! Then we were put in a little cinema to be introduced to the tour by Rupert, Daniel and Emma themselves... On a screen... It was great because at the end the screen lifted up and there in front of us were the doors to enter the grand hall... Stunning! 

In the main hall were the costumes and tables and everything used at some point in the play, a tour guide said some words then we were free to roam the rest of the studios as we wanted. We saw so many things, like the costumes from the Yule Ball, the table pieces from the different festivals, the make up, wigs, dresses, the wall covered in new rules made by Umbridge. Even the boys dorm was free to wander into, and Hagrid's Hut, The Weasleys kitchen.

I rode a broomstick! NO JOKE! Green screen and everything! Dressed as a wizard. It was amazing! I even got the picture! Will scan it on and post it!


We rode in the Weasley's flying car too! Got that picture as well! The queue was an hour long!

No lie it was an amazing day and made even better by the fact I got back together with an old boyfriend last night, I haven't spoken to him in nearly a year, his new girl had issues, and we started talking again about two weeks ago. His name is Jacob, remember him? My guy in Colorado? Yeah, its amazing... We've been up talking till the early morning every night! I love it, Then when I wake up in the morning, he is still online and we talk some more, its like falling asleep with him there, and then waking up to him too... I love it!

Anyway, Mum wants a cup of tea... Bye!
